Trump Tells Fox News That ’80 Percent’ Of The Media Is The ‘Enemy Of The People’

A day after President Donald Trump dealt with the double gut-punch of Paul Manafort’s convictions and Michael Cohen’s guilty plea, POTUS sat down with Ainsley Earhardt — co-host of his favorite morning program Fox & Friends.

“No, not at all,” Trump said after Earhardt cheerfully asked him the enemy question. “But the fake news is. And the fake news is comprised of a lot — it’s a big chunk. OK?”

He continued, “Somebody said ‘What’s the chunk?’ I said 80 percent. It’s a lot. It’s a lot.”

Trump went on to whine that if he does something well it is not reported except by the “20 percent,” which presumably includes Fox News. He also took shots at one of his favorite targets — the New York Times.
